A More Just World Is Possible with Just One Rule
NEW YORK, Feb. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The United Nations Charter, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and its covenants would suffice to make our world a just world for all. Yet, the global community does not respect its commitments to these international legal frameworks. It is not complicated.
- We just need to follow one rule underpinning them, the Golden Rule: 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.'
- Unjust and inhumane wars and atrocities are raging in the Middle East, in Sudan and across sub-Saharan Africa, in Ukraine and beyond.
- These are legally binding commitments, which can be truly simplified down to a single universal rule: the Golden Rule.
- Increasingly, armed conflicts, atrocities and human rights violations are committed daily against vulnerable, innocent children and youth in nearly every region of the world.
